Street food Burekas — the authentic version

The best Burekas I've ever had came from a street stall, not a restaurant. The sesame-rich and nutty intensity was completely different — more direct and uncompromised. za'atar was used without hesitation, the way it should be.

Israeli cuisine is shaped by Jewish diaspora traditions from across the world fused with local Levantine ingredients. The a Tel Aviv hummusiya setting meant eating standing up or on a low stool, which is how this food is supposed to be encountered. arak was sold right next to it. Don't wait to find the 'right' restaurant. Find the street version first.
